<h2>DAS registry help - email</h2>


<p>

The DAS registration server now uses <a href="http://email.net/">email</a> for user authentication.
email is a decentralized and free single sign on system.
</p>

<h2>Steps to obtain an email</h2>

<h3>Step 1 - sign up with an email provider</h3>
<p>
In order to obtain an email for yourself you should first claim one from sites like e.g.
<a href="http://www.myemail.com">http://www.myemail.com</a>.
</p>


<h3>Step 2 - log into the DAs registry</h3>

<p> Use the obtained email to <a href="login.jsp">log into</a> the DAS registration server.
</p>

<br/>
<br/>

<h3>Alternative: make a URL you control your email</h3>

<p>
To keep control which email provider you are using turn your web page into an email.
This is possible by adding
</p>

<pre>
&lt;link rel="email.server" 
      href="http://www.myemail.com/server">

&lt;link rel="email.delegate"
      href="http://user.name.myemail.com">

</pre>


<p>
into the header of the html page.
</p>

<p>
If you use servers other than myemail.com
Replace the email.delegate href with your email , and the email.server href 
with the server of you email provider. You can find this server by 
viewing the source of your HTML page on your provider's site.
